...
Who is she? Who is she?
Seeing her, wouldn't my heart stumble?
With all my words getting tangled,
wouldn't my throat catch with hiccups?
What to say, how to say it,
I even rehearsed it all.
If you blossom a smile,
I would treasure it safely.
Blooming on earth today,
the colors of a rainbow,
I have seen right before my eyes.
If just a soft touch of
yellow is added to them,
your face is created!
Some kind of, some kind of
magic I saw before me.
Until it felt truly real,
I stood there just staring.
How to speak, how to open my heart,
I kept thinking.
Where will this path lead from now on?
Won't you tell me?
...
Beyond the blue veil drawn above,
will you look at me?
Leaving aside the sudden rushing noise,
will you listen to the voice of my heart?
If careless words are spoken,
love will leave the body,
mocking at life itself,
and like a fish that finds fault with water,
it will thrash and flounder.
Who is she? Who is she?
Seeing her, wouldn't my heart stumble?
With all my words getting tangled,
wouldn't my throat catch with hiccups?
Is this you? Is this me?
There is a struggle within.
With our disguises slipping away
and the pretenses coming to an end,
when will our true beginning arrive?
Will all this pain fade away?
This is an ache borne by the heart,
what is its limit?
Until a way clears ahead,
dissolve away piece by piece.
Who is she? Who is she?
Seeing her, wouldn't my heart stumble?
With all my words getting tangled,
wouldn't my throat catch with hiccups?
How to speak, how to open my heart,
I kept thinking.
Dissolving completely away,
I found myself in such a state.
Where will this path lead from now on?
Won't you tell me?
